after years of saving & waiting finally bought my self a car before!

only about a month away till my birthday so cant wait to get out on the roads.

its a 2000 black mk2 vtr, 67k miles, lady owned. drives well just need the front box replaced and should get it in the next couple of weeks. Only payed £2000 so really chuffed with the deal.

loads of plans for it, just need the money now! if you'd like to help me out ive got some wheels for sale, check it out in the saxo parts area!

will get some pics up as soon as it arrives!
